Hi Chris, can you explain the following text for me? "1. I use individual Host names for each site and map these to localhost/127.0.0.1 in the C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts file "
I am using hostheaders or bindings through iis7, how is that different from you approach? Is one way better then the other? Thanks.
